Arrangement for Presentation of Audio-Visual Content

Abstract

A metadata coding arrangement and a media presentation device responsive to the metadata coding arrangement provides a way for independent presentation control of a video part and an audio part of an audiovisual programme content wherein at least one of the audio part or the video part being an independently retrievable part of an electronically stored programme content. The inventive coding arrangement including the metadata having at least one of a video-only related metadata part or an audio-only related metadata part.

         5 . The coding arrangement of  claim 2 , wherein said audi-only related metadata part being part of a recorded audio-visual programme content or part of a streaming audio-visual programme content and said video-only related metadata part being part of said streaming audio-visual programme content.  
     
     
         6 . The coding arrangement of  claim 5 , wherein said video-only related metadata part comprising a video presentation command being one of: 
 a) Continue playing only video content from a recording, and    b) Continue playing only video content from input stream, and    said audio-only related metadata part comprising an audio presentation command being one of:    c) Play audio content from a recording,    d) Play audio content from input stream,    e) View an audio summary of the input stream,    f) Pause the audio input stream,    g) Fast forward the muted audio input stream,    h) Rewind the mute audio input stream,    i) Skip forward over an audio portion of the input stream,    j) Skip backward over an audio portion of the input stream,    k) Repeat/loop (part of) the audio input stream,    l) Go to the beginning of the audio stream,    m) Go to the end of the audio stream,    n) Increase volume,    o) Reduce volume,    p) Fast playback of the audio input stream, and    q) Slow Playback of the audio input stream.    
     
     
         7 . An audio-visual media presentation device adapted to control a presentation of audio-visual programme content having metadata on basis of a coding arrangement of said meatadata, said device comprising a presentation controller being responsive to said coding arrangement of said meatadata to control independently an audio part and a video part of an audio-visual programme content wherein at least one of said audio part or said video part being an independently retrievable part of an electronically stored programme content, and 
 said coding arrangement comprising said metadata having at least one of a video-only related metadata part or an audio-only metadata part.    
     
     
         8 . The device of  claim 7 , wherein said metadata comprising a video-only related metadata part and an audio-only metadata part.  
     
     
         9 . The device of  claim 8 , wherein said video-only related metadata part being part of a recorded audio-visual programme content or part of a streaming audio-visual programme content and said audio-only related metadata part being part of said streaming audio-visual programme content.  
     
     
         10 . The device of  claim 9 , wherein said audio-only related metadata part comprising an audio presentation command being one of: 
 a) Continue playing only audio content from a recording, and    b) Continue Playing only audio content from input stream, and    said video-only related metadata part comprising a video presentation command being one of:    c) Play video content from a recording,    d) Play video content from input stream,    e) View a video summary of the input stream,    f) Pause the video input stream,    g) Fast forward the video input stream,    h) Rewind the video input stream,    i) Skip forward over a video portion of the input stream,    j) Skip backward over a video portion of the input stream,    k) Loop/Repeat, Repeat/loop (part of) the video input stream,    l) Go to the beginning of the video stream,    m) Go to the end of the video stream,    n) View input stream in slow motion,    o) Advance to next frame,    p) Return to previous frame,    q) VolumeUp, Increase volume in continuously playing audio stream, and    r) VolumeDown, Reduce volume in continuously playing audio stream.
